Character Biography History Discuss Robert Langdon (June 22, 1964 in Exeter, New Hampshire, United States) is a fictional professor of religious iconology and symbology at Harvard University who appeared in the Dan Brown novels Angels & Demons (2000), The Da Vinci Code (2003), The Lost Symbol (2009), and Inferno (2013). Tom Hanks portrayed Robert Langdon in the 2006 film adaptation of The Da Vinci Code, reprised the role in the 2009 film adaptation of Angels & Demons, and will play the role again in the 2016 film adaptation of Inferno. Little background detail is given by Brown about Robert Langdon. In The Da Vinci Code, he is described as looking like "Harrison Ford in Harris tweed". He was a diver at Phillips Exeter in prep school and played water polo collegiately as well.

He suffers from claustrophobia, the fear of enclosed spaces. In the film adaptation of The Da Vinci Code, Professor Langdon has nearly an eidetic memory and phenomenal problem-solving talents. Robert Langdon was named after John Langdon, a professor of typography at Drexel University who is known for his creation of ambigrams, typographical designs that can be read in multiple ways; for example, both right side up and upside down. An example of Langdons ambigrams appeared on the cover of the first edition of Browns novel Angels & Demons. On the acknowledgments page, Brown calls Langdon one of the most ingenious and gifted artists alive who rose brilliantly to my impossible challenge and created the ambigrams for this novel. John Langdon also created the logo for the Depository Bank of Zurich, which appears in The Da Vinci Code film. Angels and Demons: Robert Langdon is called to CERN headquarters in Switzerland to find out about the religious symbological implications of the death of CERN's finest and most well known scientist, Leonardo Vetra. When he starts to investigate the murder, his obsession for the subject history comes into play.

Langdon is later joined in the investigation by Vittoria Vetra (Leonardo's daughter) and they start their journey to the Vatican to unlock the mystery behind the Illuminati, an anti-Christian secret society which, according to the plot, has deeply infiltrated many global institutions, political, economical and religious. Langdon and Vetra solve the mystery of the Illuminati by following the Path of Illumination and in so doing to explain the disappearances of four Cardinals during a papal conclave, the murder of Leonardo Vetra, and the theft of antimatter (a weapon that can be used for mass destruction). At the end of the novel Langdon ends up having a relationship with Vittoria Vetra. This relationship, however, is only mentioned briefly in the Da Vinci Code, mentioning the fact that Langdon had recently felt as though he was drifting apart from Vittoria. In the last few sentences of Angels and Demons, Vittoria Vetra asks him if he has ever had a divine experience.

When he replies in the negative, Vittoria strips and quips, "You've never been to bed with a yoga master, have you?" Their relationship, however, is only referred to in The Da Vinci Code, mentioning the fact that Langdon had last seen Vittoria a year previously. The Da Vinci Code: Langdon is in Paris to give a lecture on his work. Having made an appointment to meet with Jacques Sauniï¿½re, the curator of the Louvre, he is startled to find the French police at his hotel room door. They inform him that Sauniï¿½re has been murdered and they would like his immediate assistance at the Louvre to help them solve the crime. Unknown to Langdon, he is in fact the prime suspect in the murder and has been summoned to the scene of the crime so that the police may extract a confession from him. While he is in the Louvre, he meets Sophie Neveu, a young cryptologist from the DCPJ. When Langdon and Sophie get the chance to talk in private, he finds out that Jacques Sauniï¿½re is her grandfather.

Sauniï¿½re instructs Sophie to 'find Robert Langdon', according to the message he left for her in the floor. Hence, Sophie believes he is innocent of her grandfather's murder. He spends the rest of the novel dodging the police and trying to solve the mystery of an ancient secret society, the Priory of Sion, which was once headed by Leonardo da Vinci. At the end of the novel, Langdon uncovers the mystery behind Mary Magdalene and the Holy Grail also called Sangreal, derived from either the Spanish "San Greal" (the Holy Grail), or the French "Sang real"(royal blood). He also seems to fall in love with Sophie Neveu at the end of the book, his "love of bachelorhood (having been) severely shook up". The Lost Symbol: Langdon has an adventure with the concepts of Freemasonry in Washington D.C. Tricked into visiting the nation's Capitol, Robert Langdon spends twelve hours racing through the monuments and buildings of the USA's forefathers, searching for the truth about the secret society of the Masons.

Behind new doors lie secrets that promise to change the way people view science and politics, now threatened by Zachary Solomon, the renegade, estranged son of Robert Langdon's friend, Peter Solomon, who has himself been kidnapped by Zachary, now going by the name Mal'akh. Robert Langdon is the last line of defense. With help from Katherine Solomon (Peter's younger sister), Warren Bellamy (the Architect of the Capitol) and Inoue Sato (the director of the CIA). Inferno: Langdon wakes up in an Italian hospital with no memory of the events that led him to be in Italy. Soon he realizes that someone is trying to kill him. Langdon travels to Florence, Venice, and Istanbul with Doctor Sienna Brooks to prevent a biological attack in the form of a new strain of the Bubonic plague that is sought by a rogue former member of a shadowy consulting group called The Consortium. In the course of this, Langdon must decipher clues employing allusions to the works of Sandro Botticelli and Dante Alighieri, the writer of The Divine Comedy, and, more importantly, Dante's Inferno.

Page last updated by Zuko-Halliwell , 10 months ago Angels and Demons by Dan Brown, Paperback | Barnes & Noble® "My name is Maximilian Kohler. I'm a discrete particle physicist." "A what?" Langdon could barely focus. "Are you sure you've got the right Langdon?" "You're a professor of religious iconology at Harvard University. You've written three books on symbology and  " "Do you know what time it is?" "I apologize. I have something you need to see. I can't discuss it on the phone." A knowing groan escaped Langdon's lips. This had happened before. One of the perils of writing books about religious symbology was the calls from religious zealots who wanted him to confirm their latest sign from God. Last month a stripper fromOklahoma had promised Langdon the best sex of his life if he would fly down and verify the authenticity of a cruciform that had magically appeared on her bed sheets. The Shroud of Tulsa, Langdon had called it. "How did you get my number?" Langdon tried to be polite, despite the hour. "On the Worldwide Web. The site for your book." Langdon frowned.

He was damn sure his book's site did not include his home phone number. The man was obviously lying. "I need to see you," the caller insisted. "I'll pay you well." Now Langdon was getting mad. "I'm sorry, but I really  " "If you leave immediately, you can be here by  " "I'm not going anywhere! It's five o'clock in the morning!" Langdon hung up and collapsed back in bed. He closed his eyes and tried to fall back asleep. It was no use. The dream was emblazoned in his mind. Reluctantly, he put on his robe and went downstairs. Robert Langdon wandered barefoot through his deserted Massachusetts Victorian home and nursed his ritual insomnia remedy  a mug of steaming Nestlé's Quik. The April moon filtered through the bay windows and played on the oriental carpets. Langdon's colleagues often joked that his place looked more like an anthropology museum than a home.

His shelves were packed with religious artifacts from around the world  an ekuaba from Ghana, a gold cross from Spain, a cycladic idol from the Aegean, and even a rare woven boccus from Borneo, a young warrior's symbol of perpetual youth. As Langdon sat on his brass Maharishi's chest and savored the warmth of the chocolate, the bay window caught his reflection. The image was distorted and pale...like a ghost. An aging ghost, he thought, cruelly reminded that his youthful spirit was living in a mortal shell. Although not overly handsome in a classical sense, the forty-five-year-old Langdon had what his female colleagues referred to as an "erudite" appeal  wisps of gray in his thick brown hair, probing blue eyes, an arrestingly deep voice, and the strong, carefree smile of a collegiate athlete. A varsity diver in prep school and college, Langdon still had the body of a swimmer, a toned, six-foot physique that he vigilantly maintained with fifty laps a day in the university pool. Langdon's friends had always viewed him as a bit of an enigma  a man caught between centuries.

On weekends he could be seen lounging on the quad in blue jeans, discussing computer graphics or religious history with students; other times he could be spotted in his Harris tweed and paisley vest, photographed in the pages of upscale art magazines at museum openings where he had been asked to lecture. Although a tough teacher and strict disciplinarian, Langdon was the first to embrace what he hailed as the "lost art of good clean fun." He relished recreation with an infectious fanaticism that had earned him a fraternal acceptance among his students. His campus nickname  "The Dolphin"  was a reference both to his affable nature and his legendary ability to dive into a pool and outmaneuver the entire opposing squad in a water polo match. As Langdon sat alone, absently gazing into the darkness, the silence of his home was shattered again, this time by the ring of his fax machine. Too exhausted to be annoyed, Langdon forced a tired chuckle. God's people, he thought. Two thousand years of waiting for their Messiah, and they're still persistent as hell. Wearily, he returned his empty mug to the kitchen and walked slowly to his oak-paneled study. The incoming fax lay in the tray.

Sighing, he scooped up the paper and looked at it. Instantly, a wave of nausea hit him. The image on the page was that of a human corpse. The body had been stripped naked, and its head had been twisted, facing completely backward. On the victim's chest was a terrible burn. The man had been branded...imprinted with a single word. It was a word Langdon knew well. Very well. He stared at the ornate lettering in disbelief. "Illuminati," he stammered, his heart pounding. It can't be... In slow motion, afraid of what he was about to witness, Langdon rotated the fax 180 degrees. He looked at the word upside down. Instantly, the breath went out of him. It was like he had been hit by a truck. Barely able to believe his eyes, he rotated the fax again, reading the brand right-side up and then upside down. "Illuminati," he whispered. Stunned, Langdon collapsed in a chair. He sat a moment in utter bewilderment. Gradually, his eyes were drawn to the blinking red light on his fax machine.

Whoever had sent this fax was still on the line...waiting to talk. Langdon gazed at the blinking light a long time. Then, trembling, he picked up the receiver.

[3] A frequently referred to accessory is his Mickey Mouse watch, a gift from his parents on his ninth birthday. [4] He drives an automatic Saab 900S. [5] [6] Langdon's Mickey Mouse watch Langdon was a diver at Phillips Exeter Academy in prep school and played water polo at Princeton University where he went for college. He suffers from claustrophobia, the fear of enclosed spaces, as he fell into a well when he was 7 years old.

His father died when he was 12, and his new mentor father-figure became Peter Solomon, [7] Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. [8] Known for a brilliant problem-solving mind and his genius, Langdon has an eidetic memory and an understanding of semiotics. As a professor at Harvard University, he teaches Religious Iconology and the fictional field of Symbology. Langdon also mentions he was raised a Catholic but that he will never understand God and also said that faith is a gift he has yet to receive. [9] Angels & Demons Edit Langdon's visions - Source: In Inferno , Langdon woke up in an Italian hospital with no memory of the events that led him to be in Italy. He kept hallucinating about a silver-haired woman, saying that she was life and telling him to “seek and find,” and a tall, green-eyed figure wearing a beaked mask claiming to be death. Dr. Marconi is the physician tending to him, but he soon calls his colleague, Dr. Sienna Brooks , to help him since he doesn't speak much English. An assassin entered and killed Dr. Marconi in cold blood, so Sienna helped Langdon escape and took him to her apartment.

They contacted the American Embassy, but instead of helping him, Embassy sent the same killer after him. Thankfully, he had given the address of Pensione la Fiorentina, a hotel accross the street, and not her apartment's. Source: Langdon realized that he was on his own and Sienna showed him an object that he had been carrying which could explain why they were after him. It was a cylinder with the biohazard symbol. Inside the cylinder, there was a pointer with a modified version of Sandro Botticelli's La Mappa dell'Inferno. However, when Langdon accessed his Harvard e-mail account, the authorities were able to locate him and sent a van full of armed men after him. Sienna helped him escape once more, this time they took her Trike and zigzagged through the streets of Florence to lose them. They ditched the Trike and accompanied a group of students to the Art Institute where they reached the Boboli Gardens, went to the Palazzo Pitti and used the Vasari Corridor to cross the Arno river and arrive at the Palazzo Vecchio .

There, he learned through Marta Alvarez that he had been there the night before with Ignazio Busoni and that the two of them had stolen Dante Alighieri's death mask, which belonged to Bertrand Zobrist , a man who had jumped down the Badia Tower the week before. They got separated afterwards, but Ignazio left a clue as to where he had hidden the mask: “Paradise 25” which referred to Canto XXV from The Divine Comedy. After escaping the police once again and borrowing an iPhone from a tourist, he learned where Ignazio had hidden the mask. Langdon took Sienna to the Baptistry of San Giovanni ; there they discovered that the mask had a poem in its back and that it led them to Venice. Before they could leave, however, a man named Jonathan Ferris entered and confronted him, saying that he worked for the World Health Organization (WHO) and it had been him to fly Langdon from Boston to Florence in Dr. Elizabeth Sinskey's behalf, so he needed to know what he was doing. Sienna explained that he had amnesia, but that they were working on the clues, and the three of them traveled to Venice . They first went to St.

Mark's Basilica where Sienna tried to warn Langdon about Ferris not being an ally, but he didn't catch what she was trying to say. Soon after, some agents arrived causing her to downright accuse Ferris of calling them, convincing Langdon to ditch him and flee with her. Meanwhile, Robert realized that they were in the wrong museum, where they needed to be was in fact not in Venice but in a whole different country. They tried to escape through a shaft that connected the subterraneous of the church with St. Mark's square, but there was only time for Sienna to climb up and the soldiers caught him. Langdon woke up on board a ship where the silver-haired woman from his hallucinations also was. She introduced herself as Dr. Elizabeth Sinskey, the director of the WHO and the one who had recruited him to help her find a plague created by Zobrist.

She explained that an organization called The Consortium had erased his memories to gain Langdon's trust and that was exactly what Sienna Brooks (while working for the Consortium) had been trying to do; both organizations were now on the same side, but Sienna had fooled them all for she had been Zobrist's lover and was trying to release the plague instead. They hurried to Istanbul for that was where the last clue sent Langdon to; at the Basilica Cistern , Inferno had been hidden. However, Sienna had outrun them and she was already there; the bag with the plague had disappeared. When Langdon saw her, she fled and he started chasing her; they passed by the Spice Bazaar and reached the docks of the Golden Horn where she got a boat and thus had access to the sea. Robert lost hope of catching her, but a moment later Sienna stopped and willingly returned to him. Sienna explained that she had been actually trying to stop Zobrist's plague, but it had been released a week before. Zobrist had sent her a letter explaining exactly what he had done and she went to Florence to beg him to destroy it, but she was too late.

Inferno was a viral vector that altered human DNA so one third of the population would became sterile; the virus would also be passed on to the next generation so that the problem of Earth's overpopulation would be solved. The reason Sienna acted against the WHO was because she didn't trust governments and powerful organizations with a sample of Inferno for she was sure they would use it to make weapons. Fearing imprisionment, Sienna was ready to leave right after she delivered the explanation, but Robert stopped her and asked her to trust him that since she was the only one with knowledge on Inferno, the world needed her. Making a herculean effort, Sienna agreed. Langdon took her to the Swiss Consulate where Sienna spoke to Dr. Sinskey, letting her know of everything she knew about Inferno. After hearing everything, Dr. Sinskey was sure that Sienna would be crucial at a meeting in Geneva in a few hours' time due to her different line of thought. They were going to discuss the crisis and prepare an action plan so Sienna agreed to go with her, and she and Langdon parted ways.

While saying goodbye to her at a private terminal, Sienna told him that she wished he was coming with them and asked if Robert thought that he was too old for her, showing that she was in love with him. Langdon said that he thought that he was definitely too old for her, but also said that he would like to see her again. Still, Sienna kissed him on the lips and told him that she would miss him, Robert replied that he would also miss her, then told her of an ancient saying often attributed to Dante Alighieri: “Remember tonight for it's the beginning of forever.” Etymology About: Robert Langdon About: Robert Langdon An Entity of Type : person , from Named Graph : , within Data Space : dbpedia.org Professor Robert Langdon is a fictional character created by author Dan Brown for his novels Angels & Demons (2000), The Da Vinci Code (2003), The Lost Symbol (2009), and Inferno (2013).

(pl) Dan Brown's Inferno: a sneak preview - Telegraph Books Dan Brown's Inferno: a sneak preview Dan Brown's Inferno shows all the signs of repeating the success of The Da Vinci Code, says Jon Stock, as the prologue and first chapter are published.

Dan Brown's new novel, Inferno, is published in May Photo: EDDIE MULHOLLAND By Jon Stock 1:40PM GMT 18 Mar 2013 Fans of Dan Brown were given a sneak preview of his new novel, Inferno, at the weekend, when the prologue and first chapter were serialised exclusively in the Mail on Sunday. The thriller, which is not published in Britain until May, once again features Robert Langdon, professor of Religious Symbology at Harvard. Langdon was the central character in The Da Vinci Code , which has sold more than 70 million copies worldwide. Inferno returns to the world of 14th century medieval Italy, but this time Brown turns his attention to the writing of Dante Alighieri, best known for his masterpiece, The Divine Comedy. If the characters and milieu sound familiar, there is little evidence that his writing style has changed either. The prologue begins in Florence and reads like a breathless guidebook. “I pass behind the palazzo with its crenellated tower and one-handed clock… snaking through the early morning vendors in Piazza di San Firenze with their hoarse voices smelling of lampredotto and roasted olives.

Crossing before the Bargello, I cut west toward the spire of the Badia and come up hard against the iron gate at the base of the stairs.” Related Articles 25 Sep 2009 Tour guides in the city must be planning their Inferno itineraries already. To be fair, Brown doesn’t do place badly, and he is canny enough to know how much his readers like retracing the steps of his protagonists, particularly in a beautiful city such as Florence. He also continues to abide by the oldest thriller rule in the book: end each chapter on a cliffhanger. His character descriptions, however, remain woefully clunky. Chapter One opens with memories of a mysterious veiled woman, one of Dante’s ethereal Shades, breaking into Langdon’s consciousness as he recovers in hospital from a head wound. “Seek and find,” she whispers, as thousands of bodies writhe at her feet, consumed in blood, faeces and fire.

Which is fine in its way, but then Brown kills any mystery the woman might have possessed with a rigor mortis-inducing pen portrait: “She had a sternly set jaw, deep soulful eyes, and long silver-grey hair that cascaded over her shoulders in ringlets.” Later in the scene, Langdon is attended to in hospital by Dr Sienna Brooks, who appears to have similar eye trouble. “Her eyes, though a gentle brown, seemed unusually penetrating, as if they had witnessed a profundity of experience rarely encountered by a person her age.” But hey, why change the habits of a lifetime when you’ve got book sales like Brown’s? UK publishers Bantam Press will be hoping that Inferno can repeat the success of The Da Vinci Code. Since its publication in 2003, it has sold more than ten million copies in the UK alone. Angels and Demons and The Lost Symbol , which also feature Langdon, have been international bestsellers too. And his publishers known that in Brown they have an author who understands his readers better than most writers, in particular a covert desire to improve themselves while reading a populist thriller.

By the end of Inferno, readers will have reacquainted themselves with The Divine Comedy’s Inferno and its nine circles of Hell, as well as Purgatorio and Paradiso (not to mention Virgil and Beatrice). They will have also learnt something of Dante, his career as a soldier, politician and ambassador in 14th century Europe, not forgetting his groundbreaking decision to write in Italian rather than Latin. “Although I studied Dante’s Inferno as a student, it wasn’t until recently, while researching in Florence, that I came to appreciate the enduring influence of his work on the modern world,” Brown writes in the Mail on Sunday. “I believe that people enjoy learning about the world in which they live. They find it interesting, for example, to view the Church or great works of art through a different lens, perhaps through the eyes of a specialist in this case, the symbologist and my main protagonist, Robert Langdon. “With Inferno, as with my past books, the only fictional elements are the characters; all the artwork, history, locations, documents, and science are real.” It’s just a shame that his characters can’t be a little more real too.

Inferno by Dan Brown is published by Bantam Press on May 14.

It follows symbologist Robert Langdon and cryptologist Sophie Neveu Abraham after a murder in the Louvre Museum in Paris, when they become involved in a battle between the Priory of Sion and Opus Dei over the possibility of Jesus Christ having been a companion to Mary Magdalene. The title of the novel refers, among other things, to the finding of the first murder victim in the Grand Gallery of the Louvre, naked and posed similar to Leonardo da Vinci's famous drawing, the Vitruvian Man, with a cryptic message written beside his body and a pentacle drawn on his chest in his own blood. The novel explores an alternative religious history, whose central plot point is that the Merovingian kings of France were descended from the bloodline of Jesus Christ and Mary Magdalene, ideas derived from Clive Prince's The Templar Revelation (1997) and books by Margaret Starbird. The book also refers to The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail (1982) though Dan Brown has stated that it was not used as research material. The Da Vinci Code provoked a popular interest in speculation concerning the Holy Grail legend and Mary Magdalene's role in the history of Christianity.

The book has, however, been extensively denounced by many Christian denominations as an attack on the Roman Catholic Church, and consistently criticized for its historical and scientific inaccuracies. The novel nonetheless became a worldwide bestseller that sold 80 million copies as of 2009 and has been translated into 44 languages. Combining the detective, thriller and conspiracy fiction genres, it is Brown's second novel to include the character Robert Langdon: the first was his 2000 novel Angels & Demons. In November 2004, Random House published a Special Illustrated Edition with 160 illustrations. In 2006, a film adaptation was released by Sony's Columbia Pictures.
